Concord Birth and Wellness Center

Jeanne Browne (photo)Concord Birth and Wellness Center was borne by Jeanne Browne, certified nationally by NARM (North American Registry of Midwives) as a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM), and locally by the New Hampshire Midwifery Council as a New Hampshire Certified Midwife (NHCM). Jeanne has been attending births in many capacities for over 16 years. She has been a Certified Massage Therapist, trained as an Emergency Medical Technician, Professional Doula, and worked as Breastfeeding Counselor for NH Health and Human Services. Her midwifery training has been through Birthwise Midwifery School, a 3 year preceptorship at Longmeadow Farm Birthing Home, an intensive internship at Casa de Nacimiento, and ongoing co-care and assisting with sister NHCMs. Jeanne has two children, one born at home, and the other born by Cesarean section. Both were very happily breastfed (forever)!

As a dedicated midwife, Jeanne has many consultative relationships with a close network of healthcare professionals to ensure optimal care. All midwives/birth attendants affiliated with Concord Birth and Wellness Center hold current certification in infant, child and adult CPR and Neonatal Resuscitation.

At the Birth Center…

Concord Birth and Wellness Center (CBWC) is located 1 mile off I-93 in Concord NH, in a beautiful historic building on the Merrimack River. The private birthing suites are designed with labor and birthing in mind; a safe, comfortable environment, freedom of movement, outdoor grounds to wander, private bathrooms, optimal positioning apparatus, waterbirth pools, music, etc. in a free-standing building where noise is not an issue. Family and friends are welcome. Meanwhile, you will be supported and attended by a highly-skilled, close-knit team of midwives. CBWC is part of a community-based integrated healthcare system, offering the highest standard of care.

Along with diverse practitioners working out of the center, CBWC also hosts community gatherings; mother's groups, Doula training workshops, childbirth classes, and other workshops and demonstrations. Stop by for a tour and check out our upcoming events! We are now seeing clients in our office and accepting birth center clients with babies due after Dec.1 st 2005!

At Home…

Homebirth is the root of midwifery care and is ALWAYS an option! All equipment is mobile, including the waterbirth pool. Giving birth at home represents the best of both worlds… the warmth, comfort and privacy of home, with the security and safety of a highly-skilled midwife, providing optimal care.

... because EVERY WOMAN DESERVES A MIDWIFE!
